First Generation: 'ENIAC' (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer) - 1946

Page 5: CS105 Introduction to  Computer Concepts Computer components & ARCHITECTURE

Second Generation:The invention of the transistor in 1947

A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify and switch electronic signals and power. It is composed of a semiconductor material with at least three terminals for connection to an external circuit.

What to Consider before Buying a New Computer? Why do you want to buy a computer? Who is going to use the computer? How long are you going to keep this new computer? Do you or will you have a wireless network in your

house? Do you want the new computer to be portable? How much do you want to spend when you buy a

computer? How much do you want to spend when you buy a

computer? Etc.

Know your NEEDS Know your computer

SKILLS Know your financial

Input Keyboard

E.g., Full-size backlit keyboard with 78 (U.S.) or 79 (ISO) keys, including 12 function keys and 4 arrow keys

Mouse/Track-pad E.g., Multi-Touch trackpad for precise cursor

control; supports inertial scrolling, pinch, rotate, swipe, three-finger swipe…

Processor What is a CPU and what does it do? The Central

Processing Unit (CPU) is the ‘brain’ of the computer, it lets the other components of the computer know what they have to do

Why do I need one? Having a better CPU (measured in GigaHertz) greatly improves the overall speed of your computer. The faster the Processors speed, the more calculations your computer can do in a short space of time.

What is available and what are the benefits of each? Single Core Processors: Have one “core” allowing

them to process sets of instructions as they are transmitted to the CPU.

Dual Core processors: Have 2 “Cores” that allow processing of multiple instructions at the same time.

Quad Core Processors ? E.g., 2.4GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor with 6MB

shared L3 cache

Page 15: CS105 Introduction to  Computer Concepts Computer components & ARCHITECTURE

Memory - RAM RAM stands for Random Access Memory and is

typically measured in megabytes. It is responsible for the speed at which the computer processes data and actions.

Why do I need one? The more RAM your computer has, the quicker it can access your programs and files.

Types: SDRAM: Synchronous dynamic random access memory DDR: Double Data Rate RAM. It is used in most computers

and is faster than older SDRAM types. DDR2, DDR3: Newer styles of DDR RAM which boasts extra

performance due to the increased speed at which it runs. E.g., 4GB (two 2GB SO-DIMMs) of 1333MHz DDR3

memory; two SO-DIMM slots support up to 8GB

Page 16: CS105 Introduction to  Computer Concepts Computer components & ARCHITECTURE

Internal Storage Hard drive is where all your data are stored.

It is the computers long term memory. The size of a hard drive is measured in gigabytes (Gb)

Types: PATA, SATA, SSD

E.g., 750GB 5400-rpm Serial ATA hard drive

Page 17: CS105 Introduction to  Computer Concepts Computer components & ARCHITECTURE

External Storage DVD-RW, DVD+RW; 24x CD-R; 10x CD-
